Hi, I have a question, and this seemed like a fairly good place to ask it.

Occasionally, I'm dreaming and I notice that something seems weird, and it occours to me that I'm dreaming. Sometimes I can stay in the dream, but usually only for a few moments, at which point I wake up.

Sometimes, however, I get a lucky one and can stay in the dream for quite some time, while aware that I'm dreaming, but more often than not I'm suddenly back in my bed.

Does anyone have any tips or advice that would prevent me from waking as soon as I'm aware that I'm dreaming?

Thanks in advance.
